Notes	The date of Jan Eric Jansson’s marriage to Johanna Carlsdotter is VERY hard to read in [Leksand-1992e]. LDS IGI has a date of 29 Oct 1858 for the marriage of Jan Erik Jannson to a “Johanna Carlsten” but given IGI’s penchant for notoriously bad transcriptions, a marriage record from Sweden should be sought.

Notes

“Slogberget, Hellsjö Kommun, Kopparbergs län” is the historic name for the community in which Johan Axel Jansson lived. The modern location is “Slogberg” or “Ov Slogberg”, near the village of “Hällsjön”, in “Dalarnas län” (the modern name of the province). It sould also be noted that the birth record *DOES NOT* state that Johan Axel was born in Slogberget. Rather, it states that a son, “Johan Axel,” was born to a Jan Eric Jansson and Johanna Carlsdotter, “...of Slogberget”. The use of Slogberget is a deduction based on the available evidence. [2]
The information from [Johnson, 1952] and that Johan Axel Jansson was born in Smedjebacken, Kopparbergs län, Sweden is not correct. The birth date is though, is now verified through two independent sources. [13]
13 May 1887 is the date that Johan Axel Jansson left Norrbärke Parish with his family on their way to North America, not the day that he emigrated from Sweden. [4]
